Third Quarter Results

Revenue for the quarter ended May 31, 2015 was $803,409 a decrease of 14.8 percent compared to the third quarter of 2014. The decrease in revenue was due primarily to the impact of a decline in value of the Euro relative to the US Dollar. Eliminating the negative impact of foreign exchange rates, total revenue for the third quarter would have been $918,833.

Net loss for the third quarter was ($218,429), or ($0.00) per share, versus net income of $80,100, or $0.00 during the prior year. The loss was primarily due to increased development and sales and marketing expenses in anticipation of the commercial launch of the Company's Clipstream® product, and increased rent.

"We are excited about the progress made the last few quarters on both sides of the business," said Steve Vestergaard, Chief Executive Officer for Destiny Media Technologies. "We continued to implement our proactive marketing plan for Play MPE®, further broadening our footprint by adding new re-selling partners and increasing exposure to our targeted customer base, as evidenced by the recent syndication of our music charts in Billboard Magazine. We made continued progress towards the commercialization of Clipstream®, including converting to a cloud-based encoder that allows users to upload videos from any device instantly and have their queued videos encoded at high speed with server class cloud machines. This was a highly sought after change that we feel will help to accelerate customer adoption and revenue growth for Destiny."
